Ischemic Priapism Associated with Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency: A Case Report [PDF]
Oman Medical JournalIschemic priapism is a male urologic emergency. Most cases have been linked to genetic conditions such as sickle cell disease and (much more rarely) glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, and the use of certain drugs. Here, we report the case of a

Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency [PDF]
Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2016 AbstractGlucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is 1 of the commonest human enzymopathies, caused by inherited mutations of the X-linked gene G6PD. G6PD deficiency makes red cells highly vulnerable to oxidative damage, and therefore susceptible to hemolysis.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency [PDF]
Critical Reviews in Oncology/Hematology, 1995 Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is an X chromosome-linked enzyme and the key enzyme of the pentose phosphate pathway. The G6PD functions to reduce nicotinamide-adenine-dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) to a reduced form (NADPH), while it oxidizes glucosed-phosphate (G6P) in the hexose monophosphate shunt.

Acquired Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2022 Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a hereditary condition caused by mutations on chromosome X and is transmitted by a sex-linked inheritance. However, impairment of G6PD activity may result from biochemical mechanisms that are able to inhibit the enzyme in specific clinical conditions in the absence of a structural gene-level defect.

Equine Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency [PDF]
Veterinary Pathology, 1994 Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a well-characterized X-linked inherited disorder in humans but has not been reported in horses. We describe a persistent hemolytic anemia and hyperbilirubinemia due to a severe G6PD deficiency in an American Saddlebred colt.
